Rare morpheusofthesea Posted August 11, 2023 Author #126 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Here is an idiosyncrasy of MSC Seascapes Captain Tuvo. He fashioned this large white gloved 'hand" to welcome new passengers and wave goodbye to all those departing. He places it in the window of the bridge on whatever side he intends to dock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare morpheusofthesea Posted August 11, 2023 Author #127 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Took this next to the Bridge of Sighs of the Infinity Pool deck below. Very clean ship. Saw no evidence of or complaints of soot on any furniture outdoors. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare morpheusofthesea Posted August 11, 2023 Author #128 Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) This is the best station in the Market Place buffet. Being married to a 'munchkin' has its rewards. Notice there are no lines and no guests at 7 am in the buffet. Edited August 11, 2023 by morpheusofthesea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is so much to enjoy. Why do many people dwell on some insignificant annoyances most of which are caused by other guests and are not the fault of the cruise line or staff onboard? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare morpheusofthesea Posted August 12, 2023 Author #132 Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) Tonight we had a guest performer (Enrico Cifiello) who sang 'popular' songs in the Chora Theatre instead of a theatre production. I felt he did a fine job, worth seeing again. Since we are leaving Nassau at 8 pm (Ocean Cay is a short distance away as our last stop) many return to the ship later. At dinner there were only 10 tables occupied at 5:30 for dinner. At the 7:30pm show with Enrico Cifiello there were only about 100 passengers that attended this performance in the normally packed 1100 seat theatre. The elevators were working like a dream come true. Edited August 12, 2023 by morpheusofthesea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know how long this has been broken? Also your response makes me think that multiple other things are broken and have been for a while. I'm taking two first time MSC cruisers on this ship in a couple months. It would not be a good look if multiple things are broken, in public areas, on such a new ship. What else is broken or out of service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An elevator key pad deck 7, a sliding door separating the Jungle Pool / Marketplace buffet, the automatic door leading to the OnePool deck 20, the elevator over-ride perk for YC guests, the Infinity bridge on port side. All probably guest induced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are friendly, and the bambinos and bambinas we have met have been well behaved. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare morpheusofthesea Posted August 12, 2023 Author #145 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Next cruise there will be the 'bigwig' of MSC Shipping side and his entourage of 15 staying in the Yacht Club. I wonder if the elevator over-ride will be fixed next week? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare morpheusofthesea Posted August 12, 2023 Author #147 Share Posted August 12, 2023 These are the best guys. Taylan on the left who is going over to the Seashore with Hotel Director Yannis K. and on the right our new director of the Yacht Club Ianchal. Ianchal came over from Princess and was Food & Beverage Director there. The last two days we saw workmen in MSC jumpsuits adjusting the doors on decks 18 & 19 that gain access to the Yacht Club. I took the second photo from a distance so as not to disturb this vital 'fix'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably lots of bandwidth available then! 😜😉 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare morpheusofthesea Posted August 12, 2023 Author #149 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Forgot to mention that this 'team' that MSC is putting together under the direction of Hotel Director Yannis K. is expressly for the purpose of preparing the Seashore for the American Market. (Which translates means MSC wants a 100% CDC sanitation report when it arrives). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless MSC takes a stand the trickle will turn into a flood. Geez...Pretty soon it will be like our Southern Border lol 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
